The Student Spotlight
In each newsletter, at least one EOP student will be given the spotlight to allow everyone to know a little more about what makes our students shine. To receive this profile, an EOP counselor must nominate the student for "The Student Spotlight." No established criteria exist to receive this profile other than being an all-around great student.
